Reseña del libro "Spacecraft Anomalies and Failures Workshop 2023 (en Inglés)"
For anyone interested in space power, safety is, or should be, a paramount concern, both because of the inherent value of human life and material, and because a loss of confidence could have disastrous consequences. For these reasons, it is important for students of the topic to have an empirically grounded understanding of risk. In a previous era, NASA, relying on "engineering judgment", initially estimated the risk of loss of the space shuttle at between 1 in 1000 and 1 in 100,000; the actual rate was 2 in 133, both with complete loss of vessel and crew. For this reason, this 2023 presentation from a joint NASA/NRO conference on recent spacecraft mission anomalies should be essential reading for all practitioners. Readers should expect to: - Gain valuable insights into recent spacecraft anomalies and failures, providing a deeper understanding of the challenges and risks associated with space operations. - Understand the importance of safety measures and continuous improvement in space technology, particularly in the current era of increasing space exploration and commercial space activities. - Recognize the significance of space situational awareness, space weather monitoring, and robust space debris mitigation strategies in addressing the growing number of satellites and debris in orbit. This annotated edition illustrates the capabilities of the AI Lab for Book-Lovers to add context and ease-of-use to manuscripts. It includes several types of abstracts, building from simplest to more complex: TLDR (one word), ELI5, TLDR (vanilla), Scientific Style, and Action Items; essays to increase viewpoint diversity, such as Grounds for Dissent, Red Team Critique, and MAGA Perspective; and Notable Passages and Nutshell Summaries for each page.
